I started seeing Dr Back because he was under my new insurance. I am in my late 20s and I have a few gynecological issues that I was hoping he would be able to help with so my husband and I could one day have children. Unfortunately after visiting with him I noticed how insensitive he was. It was a sensitive topic for me and he truly lacked compassion and bedside manner. Once I noticed that I always left his office sad and in tears, I knew it was time to look for a new OBGYN. I personally would not recommend this group.

Had an unfortunate experience and at first he seemed very caring and helpful but it changed once he thought I was going to sue. As a Christian it goes against Gods laws . I just wanted to know what happened and the answer I received was “ well you’re here right”?? Maybe if he used glue and took time to stich instead of using “staples “ to take the easy way out ....girls wouldn’t get infections. Proceed with caution.

Wouldn't want any other GYN to take care of me. Dr. Back and his team are the best!

Doctor Back cared for me during my very high risk pregnancy. The pregnancy ended sadly, it could have ended much worse. I had life threatening bleeding which almost took my life as it did my baby’s life. Dr. Back’s skilled hands and expertise is the reason I am alive to write this review. He never left my side through a horrific ordeal, he continued to follow up until he knew I was doing well. He had to perform an emergency hysterectomy, he is gentle, 3 weeks post surgery I was able to run and get back to my normal life. I would recommend him to my family and friends .

I have been going to him for over 20 years and introduced my daughter to him when it was time for her to see someone. I wanted her to decide such a personal thing. She thought he was great and has been going to him now herself for 7 years!
